- Synthesis and galectin-binding activities of mercaptododecyl glycosides containing a terminal β-galactosyl group
-
Mercaptododecyl glycosides containing a terminal β-galactosyl group were prepared from d-galactose or from d-lactose via hexa-O-acetyl-lactal (10) as a key intermediate. Interactions of these glycolipids (5 kinds) and galectins (β-galactoside binding lectins, 6 species) were evaluated by surface plasmon resonance (SPR) method. High binding responses were observed for the lactoside, 2-deoxy-lactoside, and lactosaminide with some galectins (Gal-3, -4, -8), whereas the galactoside and 2,3-dideoxy-lactoside showed low binding activities.

- Synthesis and antiviral activity of a novel glycosyl sulfoxide against classical swine fever virus
-
A novel compound - 2″,3″,4″,6″-tetra-O-acetyl- β-d-galactopyranosyl-(1→4)-2′,3′,6′-tri-O-acetyl-1- thio-β-d-glucopyranosyl-(5-nitro-2-pyridyl) sulfoxide - designated GP6 was synthesized and assayed for cytotoxicity and in vitro antiviral properties against classical swine fever virus (CSFV) in this study. We showed that the examined compound effectively arrested CSFV growth in swine kidney cells (SK6) at a 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50) of 5 ± 0.12 μg/ml without significant toxicity for mammalian cells. Moreover, GP6 reduced the viral E2 and Erns glycoproteins expression in a dose-dependent manner. We have excluded the possibility that the inhibitor acts at the replication step of virus life cycle as assessed by monitoring of RNA level in cells and culture medium of SK6 cells after single round of infection as a function of GP6 treatment. Using recombinant Erns and E2 proteins of classical swine fever virus produced in baculovirus expression system we have demonstrated that GP6 did not influence glycoprotein production and maturation in insect cells. In contrast to mammalian glycosylation pathway, insect cells support only the ER-dependent early steps of this process. Therefore, we concluded that the late steps of glycosylation process are probably the main targets of GP6. Due to the observed antiviral effect accompanied by low cytotoxicity, this inhibitor represents potential candidate for the development of antiviral agents for anti-flavivirus therapy. Further experiments are needed for investigating whether this compound can be used as a safe antiviral agent against other viruses from unrelated groups.

- Synthesis and biological evaluation of 3β-O-neoglycosides of caudatin and its analogues as potential anticancer agents
-
In order to study the structure–activity relationship (SAR) of C21-steroidal glycosides toward human cancer cell lines and explore more potential anticancer agents, a series of 3β-O-neoglycosides of caudatin and its analogues were synthesized. The results revealed that most of peracetylated 3β-O-monoglycosides demonstrated moderate to significant antiproliferative activities against four human cancer cell lines (MCF-7, HCT-116, HeLa, and HepG2). Among them, 3β-O-(2,3,4-tri-O-acetyl-β-L-glucopyranosyl)-caudatin (2k) exhibited the highest antiproliferative activity aganist HepG2 cells with an IC50 value of 3.11 μM. Mechanical studies showed that compound 2k induced both apoptosis and cell cycle arrest at S phase in a dose dependent manner. Overall, these present findings suggested that glycosylation is a promising scaffold to improve anticancer activity for naturally occurring C21-steroidal aglycones, and compound 2k represents a potential anticancer agent deserved further investigation.

- A Sweet H2S/H2O2Dual Release System and Specific Protein S-Persulfidation Mediated by Thioglucose/Glucose Oxidase
-
H2S and H2O2 are two redox regulating molecules that play important roles in many physiological and pathological processes. While each of them has distinct biosynthetic pathways and signaling mechanisms, the crosstalk between these two species is also known to cause critical biological responses such as protein S-persulfidation. So far, many chemical tools for the studies of H2S and H2O2 have been developed, such as the donors and sensors for H2S and H2O2. However, these tools are normally targeting single species (e.g., only H2S or only H2O2). As such, the crosstalk and synergetic effects between H2S and H2O2 have hardly been studied with those tools. In this work, we report a unique H2S/H2O2 dual donor system by employing 1-thio-β-d-glucose and glucose oxidase (GOx) as the substrates. This enzymatic system can simultaneously produce H2S and H2O2 in a slow and controllable fashion, without generating any bio-unfriendly byproducts. This system was demonstrated to cause efficient S-persulfidation on proteins. In addition, we expanded the system to thiolactose and thioglucose-disulfide; therefore, additional factors (β-galactosidase and cellular reductants) could be introduced to further control the release of H2S/H2O2. This dual release system should be useful for future research on H2S and H2O2.

- Convenient synthesis of long alkyl-chain triazolylglycosides using ionic liquid as dual promoter-solvent: Readily access to non-ionic triazolylglycoside surfactants for evaluation of cytotoxic activity
-
A convenient method for the one-pot synthesis of long alkyl-chain triazolylglycosides using ionic liquid as dual promoter and solvent is described via a sequential one-pot two-step glycosidation-CuAAc click reaction. The reaction was carried out using commercially available substrates, including glycosyl bromides, sodium azide and various long alkyl-chain alkynes to achieve the corresponding products in moderate to high yields. Furthermore, this approach was successfully applied for the preparation of non-ionic monocatenary triazolylglycoside surfactants in excellent yields through simple deacetylation. Subsequently, these surfactants were further evaluated for their cytotoxic activity.

- Halogenation and anomerization of glycopyranoside by TESH/bromine and BHQ/bromine
-
Treatment of peracetylated glycosides and β-isopropyl glycosides with halogen in the presence of TESH and BHQ has been found to result in the halogenation and the anomerization, respectively. Peracetylatedglycosides treaded with I2/TESH or Br2/TESH leading tothe formation of corresponding glycosyl halides, and b-isopropyl glycosidesreacted with Br2/BHQ resulting in the formation of a-glycosides. The anomerizationof glycosidic bond was considered to be catalyzed by in situ formation of hydrogenbromide from the mixing of Br2/BHQ.

- Synthesis and antimicrobial studies of novel n-glycosyl hydrazino carbothioamide
-
In view of applications of N-glycosylated compounds in medicinal chemistry and in many other ways, herein the synthesis of novel N-glycosyl hydrazino carbothioamides is reported. New N-glycosyl hydrazino carbothioamides were synthesized by the condensation of per-O-acetyl glycosyl isothiocyanate with different aromatic hydrazides. The newly synthesized compounds were characterized by using the IR, 1H NMR and mass spectral studies. Antimicrobial evaluation of the synthesized N-glycosyl hydrazino carbothioamide was also examined. Antimicrobial activities of the synthesized compound were evaluated against bacteria E. coli, P. aeruginosa, S. aureus, S. pyogenus and fungi C. albicans, A. niger and A. clavatus. All the N-glycosyl hydrazino carbothioamides exhibit promising antimicrobial activity.

- Functionalised bicyclic tetramates derived from cysteine as antibacterial agents
-
Routes to bicyclic tetramates derived from cysteine permitting ready incorporation of functionality at two different points around the periphery of a heterocyclic skeleton are reported. This has enabled the identification of systems active against Gram-positive bacteria, some of which show gyrase and RNA polymerase inhibitory activity. In particular, tetramates substituted with glycosyl side chains, chosen to impart polarity and aqueous solubility, show high antibacterial activity coupled with modest gyrase/polymerase activity in two cases. An analysis of physicochemical properties indicates that the antibacterially active tetramates generally occupy physicochemical space with MW of 300-600, clog D7.4 of -2.5 to 4 and rel. PSA of 11-22%. This work demonstrates that biologically active 3D libraries are readily available by manipulation of a tetramate skeleton.

- In vivo behaviour of glyco-NaI@SWCNT ‘nanobottles’
-
Carbon nanotubes are appealing imaging and therapeutic systems. Their structure allows not only a useful display of molecules on their outer surface but at the same time the protection of encapsulated cargoes. Despite the interest they have provoked in the scientific community, their applications have not yet been fully realised due to the limited knowledge we possess concerning their physiological behaviour. Previously, we have shown that the encapsulation of radionuclide in the inner space of glycan-functionalized single-walled carbon nanotubes (glyco-X@SWCNT) redirected in vivo distribution of radioactivity from the thyroid to the lungs. Here we test the roles played by such glycans attached to carbon nanotubes in controlling sites of accumulation using nanotubes carrying both ‘cold’ and ‘hot’ salt cargoes decorated with two different mammalian carbohydrates, N-acetyl-D-glucosamine (GlcNAc) or galactose (Gal)-capped disaccharide lactose (Gal–Glc). This distinct variation of the terminal glycan displayed between two types of glycan ligands with very different in vivo receptors, coupled with altered sites of administration, suggest that distribution in mammals is likely controlled by physiological mechanisms that may include accumulation in the first capillary bed they encounter and not by glycan-receptor interaction and that the primary role of glycan is in aiding the dispersibility of the CNTs.

- Controlling the Kinetics of Self-Reproducing Micelles by Catalyst Compartmentalization in a Biphasic System
-
Compartmentalization of reactions is ubiquitous in biochemistry. Self-reproducing lipids are widely studied as chemical models of compartmentalized biological systems. Here, we explore the effect of catalyst location on copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloadditions which drive the self-reproduction of micelles from phase-separated components. Tuning the hydrophilicity of the copper-ligand complex, so that hydro-phobic or -philic catalysts are used in combination with hydro-philic and -phobic coupling partners, provides a wide range of reactivity patterns. Analysis of the kinetic data shows that reactions with a hydrophobic catalyst are faster than with a hydrophilic catalyst. Diffusion-ordered spectroscopy experiments suggest compartmentalization of the hydrophobic catalyst inside micelles while the hydrophilic catalyst remains in the bulk aqueous phase. The autocatalytic effects observed can be tuned by varying reactant structure and coupling a hydrophilic alkyne and hydrophobic azide results in a more pronounced autocatalytic effect. We propose and test a model that rationalizes the observations in terms of the phase behavior of the reaction components and catalysts.

- Design, synthesis of oleanolic acid-saccharide conjugates using click chemistry methodology and study of their anti-influenza activity
-
The development of entry inhibitors is an emerging approach to the inhibition of influenza virus. In our previous research, oleanolic acid (OA) was discovered as a mild influenza hemagglutinin (HA) inhibitor. Herein, as a further study, we report the preparation of a series of OA-saccharide conjugates via the CuAAC reaction, and the anti-influenza activity of these compounds was evaluated in vitro. Among them, compound 11b, an OA-glucose conjugate, showed a significantly increased anti-influenza activity with an IC50 of 5.47 μM, and no obvious cytotoxic effect on MDCK cells was observed at 100 μM. Hemagglutination inhibition assay and docking experiment indicated that 11b might interfere with influenza virus infection by acting on HA protein. Broad-spectrum anti-influenza experiments showed 11b to be robustly potent against 5 different strains, including influenza A and B viruses, with IC50 values at the low-micromole level. Overall, this finding further extends the utility of OA-saccharide conjugates in anti-influenza virus drug design.

- Preparation and functional analysis of gossypols having two carbohydrate appendages with enaminooxy linkages
-
We developed new gossypol (Gos)-based glycoconjugates through dehydration condensation of native Gos and chemically modified glycosides having aminooxy groups. The resultant glycoconjugates (glycoGos) were resistant to hydrolysis, although they were light-sensitive and slowly decomposed even under indoor lighting. The glycoGos also exhibited improved water solubility compared with native Gos, but their saturated concentrations in water were still low (6.4–17 μM), due to their hydrophobic naphthyl rings. We also carried out WST-8 assays to assess the anticancer activity of the glycoGos on DLD-1 and HepG2 cells and found that the glycoGos having β-lactosides and having β-galactosides (specific ligands for asialoglycoprotein receptors) showed enhanced anticancer activity on HepG2 cells.

- Aglycone Ebselen and β- D -Xyloside Primed Glycosaminoglycans Co-contribute to Ebselen β- D -Xyloside-Induced Cytotoxicity
-
Most β-d-xylosides with hydrophobic aglycones are nontoxic primers for glycosaminoglycan assembly in animal cells. However, when Ebselen was conjugated to d-xylose, d-glucose, d-galactose, and d-lactose (8A-D), only Ebselen β-d-xyloside (8A) showed significant cytotoxicity in human cancer cells. The following facts indicated that the aglycone Ebselen and β-d-xyloside primed glycosaminoglycans co-contributed to the observed cytotoxicity: 1. Ebselen induced S phase cell cycle arrest, whereas 8A induced G2/M cell cycle arrest; 2. 8A augmented early and late phase cancer cell apoptosis significantly compared to that of Ebselen and 8B-D; 3. Both 8A and phenyl-β-d-xyloside primed glycosaminoglycans with similar disaccharide compositions in CHO-pgsA745 cells; 4. Glycosaminoglycans could be detected inside of cells only when treated with 8A, indicating Ebselen contributed to the unique property of intracellular localization of the primed glycosaminoglycans. Thus, 8A represents a lead compound for the development of novel antitumor strategy by targeting glycosaminoglycans.

- Evaluation of anti α-d-Glc: P -(1→4)-α-d-Glc p (GAGA4) IgM antibodies as a biomarker for multiple sclerosis
-
The correct diagnosis of multiple sclerosis (MS) remains challenging due to the complex pathophysiological and clinical characteristics of the disease. Consequently, there has been immense interest in finding a non-invasive diagnostic test for MS. Recent studies found that serum anti-α-d-Glcp-(1→4)-α-d-Glcp (GAGA4) IgM antibodies were upregulated in MS patients, and this finding led to the development of a commercial diagnostic test (gMS Dx test), although the test has poor selectivity and has not been independently validated. Herein, we developed an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to evaluate the use and reliability of several anti-glucose IgM antibodies, including those against GAGA4, as diagnostic biomarkers for MS. In contrast to previous studies, our results show that serum anti-GAGA4 IgM antibody levels are not significantly higher in MS patients, which could potentially explain the poor selectivity of the commercial test.

- From 1,4-Disaccharide to 1,3-Glycosyl Carbasugar: Synthesis of a Bespoke Inhibitor of Family GH99 Endo-α-mannosidase
-
Understanding the enzyme reaction mechanism can lead to the design of enzyme inhibitors. A Claisen rearrangement was used to allow conversion of an α-1,4-disaccharide into an α-1,3-linked glycosyl carbasugar to target the endo-α-mannosidase from the GH99 glycosidase family, which, unusually, is believed to act through a 1,2-anhydrosugar "epoxide" intermediate. Using NMR and X-ray crystallography, it is shown that glucosyl carbasugar α-aziridines can act as reasonably potent endo-α-mannosidase inhibitors, likely by virtue of their shape mimicry and the interactions of the aziridine nitrogen with the conserved catalytic acid/base of the enzyme active site.

- New water soluble glycosides of 11-keto-β-boswellic acid: A paradigm
-
Though several glycosides of various triterpenes are known, but surprisingly no boswellic acid glycosides are reported so far. With a view to make water soluble boswellic acids, prepared glycosides of 11-keto boswellic acid for the first time. Naturally occurring boswellic acids which are anti-inflammatory agents are lipophylic in nature and thus, become a limiting factor in terms of their bioavailability. Among boswellic acids, 11-keto-β-boswellic acid is found to exhibit superior biological activity and hence successfully prepared its glucosyl and maltosyl derivatives viz., 11-keto-β-boswellic acid-24-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (9) and 11-keto-β-boswellic acid-24-O-α-D-glucopyranosyl-(1?→?4)-β-D-glucopyranoside (15) which are water soluble. Both these compounds are soluble in water to the extent of 10% (w/w) which is very significant.

- Photocaged Carbohydrates: Versatile Tools for Controlling Gene Expression by Light
-
The control of biological processes plays a central role in life science, especially the tight regulation of gene expression for biotechnological systems. In this context, optogenetic tools have emerged as an important instrument for controlling gene expression by light with high spatiotemporal resolution in a non-invasive way. Here, we present the syntheses and characterization of biofunctional photocaged carbohydrates, on the basis of the biologically most relevant carbohydrates glucose, galactose, rhamnose, and lactose. The single-step cleavage of these compounds allows both, to rapidly activate and temporary or permanently repress the transcription in E. coli after short UV-A light exposure. This study thus presents a versatile toolbox of photocaged carbohydrates for the light-triggered regulation and control of cellular processes useful for synthetic bio(techno)logy applications.

Glycosylated 4-amino-1,8-naphthalimide derivatives possess a native glycosidic linkage that can be selectively hydrolysed in situ by glycosidase enzymes to release the naphthalimide as a fluorescent imaging or therapeutic agent. In vitro studies using a variety of cancer cell lines demonstrated that the naphthalimides only get taken up into cells upon enzymatic cleavage from the glycan unit; a mechanism that offers a novel approach for the targeted delivery of probes/drugs.

- Synthesis and evaluation of a series of 6-chloro-4-methylumbelliferyl glycosides as fluorogenic reagents for screening metagenomic libraries for glycosidase activity
-
Screening of large enzyme libraries such as those derived from metagenomic sources requires sensitive substrates. Fluorogenic glycosides typically offer the best sensitivity but typically must be used in a stopped format to generate good signal. Use of fluorescent phenols of pKa 7, such as halogenated coumarins, allows direct screening at neutral pH. The synthesis and characterisation of a set of nine different glycosides of 6-chloro-4-methylumbelliferone are described. The use of these substrates in a pooled format for screening of expressed metagenomic libraries yielded a "hit rate" of 1 in 60. Hits were then readily deconvoluted with the individual substrates in a single plate to identify specific activities within each clone. The use of such a collection of substrates greatly accelerates the screening process.

- Semisynthesis and in vitro photodynamic activity evaluations of halogenated and glycosylated derivatives of pheophorbide a
-
The present work focuses on the semisynthesis of halogenated and glycosylated derivatives of pheophorbide a (Pha). Because of the low reaction yields enocuntered en route to halogenated derivatives, we then focused only on the semisynthesis of glycosylated derivatives of Pha with the aim at enhancing the Pha specificity for cancer cells by introducing β-galactose moieties expected to bind gal-1. We applied LC-SPE-NMR/MS, to facilitate the direct identification of glycosylated derivatives. The transposition of these analytical methods to a preparative scale facilitated the isolation of glycosylated compounds in quantities sufficient to evaluate in vitro photodynamic efficacies. The in vitro growth inhibi-tory activity of semisynthesized compounds was then evaluated using the MTT colorimetric assay in the presence and absence of light. However, this pharmacological evaluation method seems to be unable to efficiently yield information about carbohydrate effects in relation to possible compound specificities for gal-1 overexpressed by B16F10 cancer cells.

- Synthesis of 2-deoxy-2,2-difluoro-α-maltosyl fluoride and its X-ray structure in complex with Streptomyces coelicolor GlgEI-V279S
-
Streptomyces coelicolor (Sco) GlgEI is a glycoside hydrolase involved in α-glucan biosynthesis and can be used as a model enzyme for structure-based inhibitor design targeting Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) GlgE. The latter is a genetically validated drug target for the development of anti-Tuberculosis (TB) treatments. Inhibition of Mtb GlgE results in a lethal buildup of the GlgE substrate maltose-1-phosphate (M1P). However, Mtb GlgE is difficult to crystallize and affords lower resolution X-ray structures. Sco GlgEI-V279S on the other hand crystallizes readily, produces high resolution X-ray data, and has active site topology identical to Mtb GlgE. We report the X-ray structure of Sco GlgEI-V279S in complex with 2-deoxy-2,2-difluoro-α-maltosyl fluoride (α-MTF, 5) at 2.3 ? resolution. α-MTF was designed as a non-hydrolysable mimic of M1P to probe the active site of GlgE1 prior to covalent bond formation without disruption of catalytic residues. The α-MTF complex revealed hydrogen bonding between Glu423 and the C1F which provides evidence that Glu423 functions as proton donor during catalysis. Further, hydrogen bonding between Arg392 and the axial C2 difluoromethylene moiety of α-MTF was observed suggesting that the C2 position tolerates substitution with hydrogen bond acceptors. The key step in the synthesis of α-MDF was transformation of peracetylated 2-fluoro-maltal 1 into peracetylated 2,2-difluoro-α-maltosyl fluoride 2 in a single step via the use of Selectfluor.

We report the X-ray structure of Sco GlgEI-V279S in complex with 2-deoxy-2,2-difluoro-α-maltosyl fluoride (α-MTF, 5) at 2.3 ? resolution. α-MTF was designed as a non-hydrolysable mimic of M1P to probe the active site of GlgE1 prior to covalent bond formation without disruption of catalytic residues. The α-MTF complex revealed hydrogen bonding between Glu423 and the C1F which provides evidence that Glu423 functions as proton donor during catalysis. Further, hydrogen bonding between Arg392 and the axial C2 difluoromethylene moiety of α-MTF was observed suggesting that the C2 position tolerates substitution with hydrogen bond acceptors. The key step in the synthesis of α-MDF was transformation of peracetylated 2-fluoro-maltal 1 into peracetylated 2,2-difluoro-α-maltosyl fluoride 2 in a single step via the use of Selectfluor.

- Click chemistry inspired highly facile synthesis of triazolyl ethisterone glycoconjugates
-
Numerous deoxy-azido sugars 3 were prepared by the reaction of tosyl/bromo sugars with NaN3 in dry DMF under heating condition. The 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of deoxy-azido sugars 3 with ethisterone 4 to afford regioselective triazole-linked ethisterone glycoconjugates 5 was investigated in the presence of CuI and DIPEA in dichloromethane or CuSO4· 5H2O and sodium ascorbate in aqueous medium. All the developed compounds were characterized by spectroscopic analysis (IR, 1H & 13C NMR, and MS spectra). Structure of triazolyl ethisterone glycoconjugate 5a has been further confirmed by its Single Crystal X-ray analysis.

- A facile synthesis of sialylated oligolactosamine glycans from lactose via the Lafont intermediate
-
The 2-aminophosphonium iodide lactosamine glycoside (Lafont intermediate) readily obtained from lactose has been previously shown not to be amenable to derivatization for oligosaccharide synthesis, but has now been successfully converted via the salicylaldehyde imine into suitably protected lactosamine building blocks (13-16) for glycosylation. The titled strategy has enabled us to rapidly synthesize the Neu5Ac-α-2,3LacNAc-β-1,3LacNAc pentasaccharide and Neu5Ac-α-2,3LacNAc-β-1,3LacNAc-β-1,3LacNAc heptasaccharide. Furthermore, this strategy has been adopted for the synthesis of other 2-amino sugars (e.g., 23-27), which provides a useful method for the preparation of 2-amino sugar building blocks.

- 'Click' assembly of glycoclusters and discovery of a trehalose analogue that retards Aβ40 aggregation and inhibits Aβ40-induced neurotoxicity
-
Osmolytes have been proposed as treatments for neurodegenerative proteinopathies including Alzheimer's disease. However, for osmolytes to reach the clinic their efficacy must be improved. In this work, copper(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition chemistry was used to synthesize glycoclusters bearing six copies of trehalose, lactose, galactose or glucose, with the aim of improving the potency of these osmolytes via multivalency. A trehalose glycocluster was found to be superior to monomeric trehalose in its ability to retard the formation of amyloid-beta peptide 40 (Aβ40) fibrils and protect neurons from Aβ40-induced cell death.

- Synthesis of uniformly deuterated n-dodecyl-β -d-maltoside (d39 -DDM) for solubilization of membrane proteins in TROSY NMR experiments
-
This work reports the first synthesis of uniformly deuterated n-dodecyl-β -D-maltoside (d39-DDM). DDM is a mild non-ionic detergent often used in the extraction and purification of membrane proteins and for solubilizing them in experimental studies of their structure, dynamics and binding of ligands. We required d39-DDM for solubilizing large α-helical membrane proteins in samples for [15N-1H]TROSY (transverse relaxation-optimized spectroscopy) NMR experiments to achieve the highest sensitivity and best resolved spectra possible. Our synthesis of d39-DDM used d7-D-glucose and d25-n-dodecanol to introduce deuterium labelling into both the maltoside and dodecyl moieties, respectively. Two glucose molecules, one converted to a glycosyl acceptor with a free C4 hydroxyl group and one converted to a glycosyl donor substituted at C1 with a bromine in the α-configuration, were coupled together with an α(1 → 4) glycosidic bond to give maltose, which was then coupled with n-dodecanol by its substitution of a C1 bromine in the α-configuration to give DDM. 1H NMR spectra were used to confirm a high level of deuteration in the synthesized d39-DDM and to demonstrate its use in eliminating interfering signals from TROSY NMR spectra of a 52-kDa sugar transport protein solubilized in DDM.

- Synthesis and in vitro evaluation of antifungal and cytotoxic activities of eugenol glycosides
-
Six eugenol glycosides were prepared in order to assess their antifungal activity against Candida species. They were synthesized by glycosylation of eugenol with the appropriate glycosyl bromides followed by deacetylation with sodium methoxide in methanol and were evaluated in vitro for their antifungal activity through a Mueller-Hinton broth microdilution method. The peracetyl glycoside (derivative 4) was the most promising one since it was able to inhibit growth of C. albicans, C. tropicalis and C. glabrata with IC50 values much lower than that of the prototype eugenol. Derivative 4 showed to be 160.0 and 3.4 times more potent than eugenol and fluconazole, respectively, against C. glabrata with low cytotoxity (selectivity index of 45). Moreover, it was possible to verify the positive effect of gluco configuration and lipophilicity on antifungal activity, since glucose peracetyl derivatives were more active than the free sugars of galacto configuration.

- Glycosylated tris-bipyridine ferrous complexes to provide dynamic combinatorial libraries for probing carbohydrate-carbohydrate interactions
-
2,2-Bipyridines having β-lactoside, β-d-glucoside, β-d-galactoside, and N-acetyl-β-d-glucosaminide were prepared and then, complexed with ferrous ion to afford trivalent glycoclusters having tris-bipyridine ferrous complex cores. Each glycocluster provides a dynamic combinatorial library composed of four diastereomeric stereoisomers (Δmer, Δfac, Λmer, and Λfac) whose ratios depend on their relative stabilities. CD spectral analyses of these glycoclusters showed that various cations (Na+, Mg2+, K+ or Ca2+) enriched Δ-forms of the glycocluster having β-lactosides and N-acetyl-β-d-glucosaminides possibly by cations-induced intramolecular carbohydrate-carbohydrate interactions.

- Glycosynthase with broad substrate specificity-an efficient biocatalyst for the construction of oligosaccharide library
-
A versatile glycosynthase (TnG-E338A) with strikingly broad substrate scope has been developed from Thermus nonproteolyticus β-glycosidase (TnG) by using site-directed mutagenesis. The practical utility of this biocatalyst has been demonstrated by the facile generation of a small library containing various oligosaccharides and a steroidal glycoside (total 25 compounds) in up to 100 % isolated yield. Moreover, an array of eight gluco-oligosaccharides has been readily synthesized by the enzyme in a one-pot, parallel reaction, which highlights its potential in the combinatorial construction of a carbohydrate library that will assist glycomic and glycotherapeutic research. Significantly, the enzyme provides a means by which glycosynthase technology may be extended to combinatorial chemistry.

- A tetrazine templated method for the synthesis of ternary conjugates
-
Conjugation is an important reaction that enables coupling of molecules. Many protocols exist for the synthesis of binary conjugates from two different molecules or for the polyvalent display of a single molecule. There aren't many methods for the synthesis of ternary conjugates. However, methods for ternary conjugation are important for understanding the interplay of interactions between three biomolecules (or any three molecules per se). A strategy for ternary bioconjugation using inverse electron demand Diels-Alder reaction with tetrazine is studied. Ternary conjugation was demonstrated by the reaction of a model glyco-peptide binary conjugate with a fluorescent tagged olefin. The Royal Society of Chemistry 2013.

In this paper we present the synthesis of glyco-phosphoramidate conjugates as easily accessible analogs of glyco-phosphorous esters via the Staudinger-phosphite reaction. This protocol takes advantage of synthetically accessible symmetrical carbohydrate phosphites in good overall yields, in which ethylene or propylene linkers can be introduced between phosphorous and galactose or lactose moieties. The phosphites were finally applied for the chemoselective reaction with azido-peptides and polyazido(poly)glycerols.

- Synthetic studies of bi-fluorescence-labeled maltooligosaccharides as substrates for α-amylase on the basis of fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET)
-
A series of bi-fluorescence-labeled maltooligosaccharides that lead to fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) was systematically synthesized. Effective FRETs were observed with all of the synthesized probes. Digestion of probes having tetra-, quintet-, hexa- or hepta-saccharidic chain lengths with human saliva α-amylase resulted in disappearance of FRET when an excitation wavelength of at 290 nm was used followed by detection at ca. 520 nm due to emission from the dansyl moiety. However, continuous FRET was observed when probes having di- or trisaccharidic chain lengths were used as substrates. In addition to the substrate characteristics based on saccharidic chain length, the reaction rates of digestion for the substrates by amylase were different and also depended on their saccharidic chain length.

- Synthesis of fluorinated maltose derivatives for monitoring protein interaction by 19F NMR
-
A novel reporter system, which is applicable to the 19F NMR investigation of protein interactions, is presented. This approach uses 2-F-labeled maltose as a spy ligand to indirectly probe protein-ligand or protein-protein interactions of proteins fused or tagged to the maltose-binding protein (MBP). The key feature is the simultaneous NMR observation of both 19F NMR signals of gluco/ manno-type-2-F-maltose-isomers; one isomer (α-gluco-type) binds to MBP and senses the protein interaction, and the nonbinding isomers (β-gluco- and/or α/β-manno-type) are utilized as internal references. Moreover, this reporter system was used for relative affinity studies of fluorinated and nonfluorinated carbohydrates to the maltose-binding protein, which were found to be in perfect agreement with published X-ray data. The results of the NMR competition experiments together with the established correlation between 19F chemical shift data and molecular interaction patterns, suggest valuable applications for studies of protein-ligand interaction interfaces.

- Sweet chiral porphyrins as singlet oxygen sensitizers for asymmetric Type II photooxygenation
-
Carbohydrate-decorated meso-tetraarylporphyrins P-G and P-C were synthesized via Lewis-acid catalyzed condensation of acetylated carbohydrate-substituted benzaldehydes and pyrrole. Their efficiency of singlet oxygen production was compared with the corresponding non-substituted porphyrin. The oxidation of the spin trap molecule TEMP (2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidone) by singlet oxygen to TEMPO was measured by ESR spectroscopy, showing higher reaction rates for the sugar porphyrins. These results were corroborate by laser flash photolysis measurements that resulted in higher triplet lifetimes of glucosyl- and cellobiosyl porphyrins in comparison with tetrakis(4- hydroxyphenyl)porphyrin. Low ee was detected in the photooxygenation of ethyl tiglate. The Royal Society of Chemistry and Owner Societies.

- Synthesis of benzaldehyde-functionalized glycans: A novel approach towards glyco-SAMs as a tool for surface plasmon resonance studies
-
In recent years the interest in tools for investigating carbohydrateprotein (CPI) and carbohydrate-carbohydrate interactions (CCI) has increased significantly. For the investigation of CPI and CCI, several techniques employing different linking methods are available. Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) imaging is a most appropriate tool for analyzing the formation of self-assembled monolayers (SAM) of carbohydrate derivatives, which can mimic the glycocalyx. In contrast to the SPR imaging methods used previously to analyze CPI and CCI, the novel approach reported herein allows a facile and rapid synthesis of linker spacers and carbohydrate derivatives and enhances the binding event by controlling the amount and orientation of ligand. For immobilization on biorepulsive amino-functionalized SPR chips by reductive amination, diverse aldehyde-functionalized glycan structures (glucose, galactose, mannose, glucosamine, cellobiose, lactose, and lactosamine) have been synthesized in several facile steps that include olefin metathesis. Effective immobilization and the first binding studies are presented for the lectin concanavalin A.
